Christmas Shopping & Opening Hours
Amid the hustle and bustle of the festive season we are delighted to be keeping our doors open later than usual for gift buyers in search of something unique and different. We're even keeping the galleries open late on select evenings and hosting live music to keep the festive spirit flowing!
Come browse our shop, with its acclaimed range of ceramics, glassware, jewellery, homewares, toys and books, and discover all sorts of exciting things by designers, makers and publishers from across the UK. It's the perfect place to pick up a gift, with every penny supporting our exhibitions and education programmes.
